Much like 32bit software replaced 16bit, the same is happening now. Soon, everything will be 64bit. Be prepared. The topic of Vitalizati...

Optional Arguments

It would appear that if I set the default of an argument in a method, then passing it a value is optional. Is this supposed to happen? I can call the following w/o any arguments. Observe: sub TGtkApplication.MessageBox( byref title as string = "Message", byref text as string = ""...

Mel, FreeBASIC does not have native support for any kind of Graphic User Interface. This is achieved through various libraries and the API of the system you are developing on.

If you're looking for a reliable and cheap wireless adapter I would recommend the Belkin USB Wireless-G. You can get it for about $40 at BestBuy and it works very very well with Ubuntu 8.10
